ID: 17105 Updated by: ludovic.langeNOSPAM@free.fr Reported By: acm@tweakers.net Status: Analyzed Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Operating System: multiple linux versions PHP Version: 4.2.0 Assigned To: hholzgra New Comment: Same problem with version 4.2.1 Setting the LC_NUMERIC locale category is enough to trigger (or workaround) the bug : Workaround : $locale = setlocale( LC_NUMERIC, 0 ); setlocale( LC_NUMERIC, "C" ); // include / include_once / require / require_once... setlocale( LC_NUMERIC, $locale ); unset( $locale ); Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-06-17 08:50:32] hholzgra@php.net yet another setlocale() related issue :( ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-05-08 18:42:32] acm@tweakers.net Using the code below results into truncation of the floating point numbers if the code is included after the setlocale call. I saw some old reports of this problem, but the developers claimt to have fixed this. Tested it on 3 servers, one running php4.2.0 with apache 1.3.24 on gentoo linux 1.1a, the second using apache-1.3.24 with php4.1.2 on redhat 7.1 and the third running apache-1.3.24 with php4.1.2 on slackware 7. <? include('class1.php'); $test = new class1(); setlocale(LC_ALL,"nl_NL"); $test = new class1(); include('class2.php'); $test = new class2(); ?> class1.php <? class class1 { function class1() { $float = 1.1; var_dump($float); } } $float = 1.1; var_dump($float); ?> class2.php <? class class2 { function class2() { $float = 1.1; var_dump($float); } } $float = 1.1; var_dump($float); ?> If you need any extra information, I'll supply you with that :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=17105&edit=1
